Note: When you connect the air line, listen for any sound
from the unit. If you hear the pump acvate and begin to
cycle, disconnect the air line immediately. This indicates
that there is a blockage or other problem somewhere
in the system, which could cause the unit to acvate
spontaneously. The problem must be addressed before
proceeding (see “Troubleshoong Instrucons”).
6. Placethumbovertheairtriggertoacvatetheunitand
